Somethings come up at the last minute so it’ll be the commentary for me today.

2-2

COYOS

Afternoon chaps.
Grey, cold and windy here - but not actually raining at the moment.
Let's hope for a decent game today.

Good to see

I guess Matt Harrold can play in goal if LV should pick up an injury.

Johnson clearly above Angol in the pecking order now although it's hard to see why. I thought that originally Ekpiteta's injury was described as minor but clearly not the minor! Strange to have no sub keeper on the bench.

Sunny Uppsala signing in. Get those 3 points today.

Victor Adeboyejo is playing for Cambridge.

Decent start for the O's.

Couple of sighters for Sotiriou, long distance shot unconvincingly fielded by the Cambridge keeper and running onto a flick header he should've done a bit better with before getting closed down.

Neither side looks a particularly solid defensive unit, two fairly poor sides showing why they're at the wrong end of the league.

Suspect the fact he won't sign a new contract has more to do with it. Two more injuries (Wright and Wilkinson) when we didn't even have a game... what are they doing in training?

Then again

1`-0

Clay takes a shot from distance, you feeling alright there Craig

Bosh !
JMD.
1 - 0.

Nice bit of inventive play from JMD, scoops the ball over Cambridge defenders for Sotiriou to hit on the volley but doesn't quite catch it cleanly, easily saved by the keeper.

Dayton / JMD / Sotiriou seem a bit more lively than Wright and Wilkinson in this formation. Food for thought there for Embleton when the injured players come back.

Cambridge hit the post from a whipped free kick across the box. Lucky escape.

2-0 Johnson, follows in after keeper spills Brophy's initial low strike.

HT - Cambridge are really poor, worst side I've seen down here this season aside from Stevenage and even they managed a clean sheet

Yay !
2 - 0
Johnson.

Get in!
